Abstract: An undercarriage assembly includes a link assembly, including a plurality of laterally spaced pairs of track links pivotally connected to one another at pivot joints to form an endless chain. The assembly may also include an idler, the idler including a solid disk with substantially planar sides and an outer tread surface engaging an inner portion of the endless chain.

Abstract: An undercarriage assembly includes a link assembly, including a plurality of laterally spaced pairs of track links pivotally connected to one another at pivot joints to form an endless chain, each laterally spaced pair of track links including a first track link and a second track link with a space between the first track link and the second track link. The undercarriage assembly may also include a first carrier skid projecting upward into the space between the first track link and the second track link of at least one of the laterally spaced pairs of track links.

Abstract: A pin for use in a track roller or bogie assembly comprises an outboard facing end, an inboard facing end having an aperture, a cylindrically-shaped external surface extending from the outboard facing end to the inboard facing end, and an inner surface extending inwardly from the aperture of the inboard facing end toward the outboard facing end and defining a cavity within the pin. The inner surface of the pin includes a groove disposed proximate the inboard facing end into which an outer surface of a resilient stopper expands to increase the pressure resistance of the pin and stopper to stopper being pushed or pulled from the pin.

Abstract: A welding head is provided. The welding head includes a bracket. The bracket includes a central block coupled to it. The central block includes a tip holder detachably coupled to a lower portion of the central block and a plurality of contact tips attached to the tip holder. Each contact tip is adapted to receive an electrode. The bracket also includes a pair of side blocks pivotally coupled to the bracket and provided on either sides of the central block. Each side block includes a side tip holder detachably coupled to a lower portion of the side block and a side contact tip attached to the side tip holder. Each of the side contact tip is adapted to receive the electrode. The side blocks are capable of variable positioning relative to the bracket.

Abstract: A link assembly for an endless track may include a first track link with shoe-mounting structure configured to allow attachment of a track shoe, the first track link having substantially planar sides. The link assembly may also include a second track link with shoe-mounting structure configured to allow attachment of a track shoe, the second track link having substantially planar sides. Additionally, the link assembly may include a third track link with shoe-mounting structure configured to allow attachment of a track shoe, the third track link having substantially planar sides, the third track link being pivotally connected to the first track link at a first pivot joint, and the third track link being pivotally connected to the second track link at a second pivot joint.

Abstract: An undercarriage guiding assembly includes a track roller frame. The assembly may also include a roller connected to the track roller frame for rotation relative thereto, the roller having a roller body constructed from a single, unitary piece of parent material. The roller body may include a first roller tread disposed between a first end of the roller body and a second end of the roller body. The roller body may also include a second roller tread disposed between the first and second ends of the roller body. Additionally, the assembly may include an idler connected to the track roller frame for rotation relative thereto. The idler may include a huh and a body extending radially outward from the hub, the body having a first substantially planar side surface and a second substantially planar side surface opposite the first substantially planar side surface.

Abstract: A track link has a link body. The link body of the track link may include a first substantially planar side surface, a second substantially planar side surface opposite the first substantially planar side surface, a shoe face extending between the first and second substantially planar side surfaces, and a roller rail extending between the first and second substantially planar side surfaces opposite the shoe face.

Abstract: A metal face seal assembly for sealing between machine components includes a first subassembly and a second subassembly rotatable relative to the first subassembly. Compressible seals positioned between inner and outer seal members of the subassemblies provide a non-axial sealing load, whereas at least one metallic biaser provides an axial face load to bias inner seal members of each subassembly together at a rotatable interface.
